Nikki, good analogy.

My friend's cardiologist makes clear his recommendations.  If a patient 
continues to smoke, eat unhealthful foods, won't exercise, and doesn't take 
seriously his/her heart health the doctor refuses to see the patient 
further.  He is quite militant when it comes to his enthusiasm for keeping 
his patients healthy. He will certainly try to convince his patients to 
keep with the program if he/she is feeling discouraged.
